Device for the conversion of wind energy into electric energy

Abstract

Abstract The invention relates to an installation making it possible to obtain small, medium and high powers by the conversion of wind energy into electrical energy. The installation (1) comprises a cylindrical tower (2) equipped with horizontal partitions (5) defining superposed chambers (6) communicating with one another by means of diffusers (7). The outer surface of the tower consists of vertical blades (3), the opening of which is controlled by a vane (8). Air penetrates via the upper chamber (6) and then descends within the tower, at the same time being compressed, before passing through the turbines (15) actuating the electrical generators (17). It is subsequently admitted into an outlet chamber (19) by way of regulators (16), before being discharged from the tower at the opposite side to the wind. The invention is used for generating electrical energy which can be used in industry from wind energy. <IMAGE>
